"It is Mayor Garcetti's sincere hope that no president would violate those principles, the very foundation of our nation, by taking punitive action on cities that are simply protecting the well being of residents."

After what 0's DOJ put Sheriff Joe through, Trump's DOJ needs to pay the same attention to these criminal-harboring law breaking "mayors"

So Jan Brewer in AZ can't sign and enforce laws that mirror the Feds, but liberal cities can disregard those very same federal immigration laws.

A fraction of me hoped that Hillary would've won, so that Russia can nuke these two hellholes to smithereens.

Enforcing the law is a most important part of President Trump’s agenda. I think you guys in NYC, and L.A. are idiots playing with fire if you don’t believe he will insist upon doing so.

Obama took to long with the DOJ. Should just have congress pass immigration law on “sanctuary cities” and then arrest those officials who don’t do what Congress said they should do.

Wow. Just wow.

Stop the funding AND prosecute those enabling the violations of federal law.
